And these include both television and film adaptations. Therefore, seeing “The Turning” in the feed has us pretty excited. The trailer just came out yesterday and Woah! get ready to be scared.

The other cast members include Mackenzie Davis, Brooklynn Prince, Joely Richardson, and Barbara Marten.

Steven Spielberg is the brain behind the project which was initiated under the title Haunted in 2016. However, due to some issues in the alterations of title, characters and the story. Spielberg pulled the plug before the beginning of the shoot and a new team was formed later. Out of the budget of $17 million, $5 million was already spent before the shoot. The Turning release date is confirmed as January 24, 2020. Watch the trailer below:
